I like the simplicity of this image and the quote from the Lord of the Rings works to enhance its beauty.

Too good.

Thank you all. This one struck me as soon as I saw it. Sometimes places remind me of hobbiton, of Minas Tirith, of Entwood etc…... Most lose that similarity when I take their picture LOL

Thank you Jaeda. The place can be visited of course, but it doesn’t look as wonderful until seen in infrared LOL
